Watching The Moon Missing The Fair
(lancelotfeng)
?????
The moon, grown full now over the sea,
?????
Brightening the whole of heaven,
?????
Brings to separated hearts
?????
The long thoughtfulness of night....
?????
It is no darker though I blow out my candle.
?????
It is no warmer though I put on my coat.
?????
So I leave my message with the moon
?????
And turn to my bed, hoping for dreams.
